Buying Amish furniture direct from an Amish craftsman is a more challenging but potentially more fulfilling experience. If you live in Madison, however, you have the opportunity to seek out an Amish woodworker on your own, due to the proximity of the Amish.

However, not all Amish sell to retail buyers–in fact it’s probably safe to say more prefer to sell wholesale. That noted, woodworking is among the top occupations for Amish, and in many communities can be small home shops producing furniture products.

To find an Amish business, you may have to leave Madison and visit a community. Amish typically advertise their businesses simply, using plain signs at the end of drives and posted at country road intersections. Asking about at other Amish businesses (such as variety stores or bulk foods stores) can be a good way to locate a retail craftsman. Alternatively, some furniture seekers prefer buying Amish furniture online. If you do decide to visit an Amish community, here are a few communities lying within a relatively short drive of Madison:

Kingston/Dalton (Columbia, Marquette, Green Lake County): Just an hour or so north of Madison, the community in the Kingston/Dalton is one of the two largest in the state. Roughly 1,500 Amish live in this settlement. In this settlement you’ll find numerous Amish woodworking shops producing cabinets, chairs, and rockers, among other products, and also finishing furniture.

Sauk County: This county is home to two Amish communities lying 60-90 minutes from the capital (vicinity of Loganville, and LaValle). These are much smaller than the Kingston community, however, at just 2 or 3 congregations each.

Vernon County: Vernon County is noteworthy in that it is home to 5 distinct Amish communities (some of which overlap into neighboring counties such as Monroe). The largest of these is found near the town of Cashton (1,500+ Amish). Retail furniture stores can also be found in the Cashton area (see the WI Amish Furniture guide for more).
